BOOM VANG
A boom vang (82) may be installed on the Tanzer 22 as shown in Figure 9. If you
have a boom vang plate (83), then the double block of the boom vang
assembly is fitted with a small stainless steel key (84) and this should be inserted in
the boom vang plate. The other double block of the boom vang, incorporating
a jamb cleat, should be secured to the lower of the two holes in the aluminum
plate (85) protruding from the sail groove at the base of the most.
MAINSAIL
The bolt rope on the foot of the mainsail should be slid into the sail groove on the
boom. The tack of the sail is then secured to the tack plate (36) with the large
tack pin (37) supplied (see Figure 4). This pin may be opened slightly so as to
ensure that it does not fall out of the tack plate.
The battens supplied (two x 24" and two x 18") should be inserted in the batten
pockets in the mainsail. Do not fail to push the end of each batten well into each
pocket and then downwards so that they are retained by the closed outer end
of each pocket. Care should be taken when folding and/or stowing the mainsail
on the boom to avoid breaking the battens.
